What is the ruling on praying in a torn garment?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Come on...
The questioner : Shaykh, does a hole in the garment require repeating the prayer?
The Shaykh : A hole in the garment.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Do you mean it exposes the awrah (part of the body that must be covered)?
The questioner : From the thigh side, yes, Shaykh. Is it a small hole or a large one?
The Shaykh : Small or large? Just stick to one.
The questioner : Small.
The Shaykh : Okay, can the awrah be seen through this small hole with the naked eye?
The questioner : One who looks closely can see it.
The Shaykh : Okay, and the one wearing it knows. If he knows, it is not permissible. If he did not know, may Allah forgive what has passed.
The questioner : If he finds out later, does he have to repeat it?
The Shaykh : How?
The questioner : If he finds out after the prayer.
The Shaykh : No, he owes nothing unless he knew beforehand. I answered you regarding both possibilities. If he did not know, there is no issue. But if he knew and then was lazy, he must repeat it.
The questioner : May Allah reward you, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Welcome.
